Middle East crisis

Live: US struck water storage tanks in Sirik, cut off supply to locals, claims Iran

US-Israel-Iran War Live Updates: The ongoing conflict in the Middle East shows no signs of abating as Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on Wednesday morning said it launched Shahed-136 drones against the US Navy's Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, describing the strike as retaliation for recent US attacks on Iranian infrastructure. The claim followed a warning from Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi that Tehran would respond to US military action. Meanwhile, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said it conducted "self-defence" strikes on Iranian air-defence systems, radar installations and ground-control sites near the Strait of Hormuz after the reported downing of a US Army Apache helicopter. Washington characterised the operation as a proportional response to attacks on US forces and commercial shipping, while Iran portrayed it as further escalation. Both sides have exchanged competing claims over the effectiveness of their strikes, underscoring the fragility of ongoing diplomatic efforts. Separately, Israeli operations in Lebanon continue, with recent air and drone strikes reported in southern Lebanon and near Beirut amid renewed tensions with Hezbollah, further complicating regional stability.
